It’s official: “High School Musical” star Vanessa Hudgens has reached the phase of her career where it’s become essential to shed that good little girl image so she’s shedding her clothes (intentionally this time) in a new, hosed down spread inside the March issue of Details Magazine.

At 22-years-old the actress has found herself on the verge of obscurity — hasn’t had a hit outside the “HSM” brand, music career flopped and is no longer the tween world’s most recognizable arm candy — despite having the name recognition of an Angelina Jolie.

First up on her path to career re-establishment is a lead role in Zack Snyder’s incredible looking “Sucker Punch.” A no holds barred action film that cast Vanessa as an ass-kicking damsel in no distress. “We trained with Navy Seals. We were machines, You could NOT f*** with us,” she tells the mag of her training.

“We’d all go running around Vancouver, where we filmed, to restaurants and bars and karaoke, like we owned it. We’d intentionally cruise back alleys, knowing that if anything did happen, we’d be all right. Taking the safest way home at that point was just boring.”

And it seems that experience has bled through to Vanessa’s real life since her interview is one of the least boring I’ve read in quite some time. As proof here are the two of the most un-boring things you’re likely to read all day.

On her “Journey to the Center of the Earth” co-star, Sir Michael Caine:

“He’s uh-mazing. Not only is he uh-mazingly, stupidly talented, but he still kind of hits on me. All the time. If it was anybody else, I’d be like, ‘Who the hell do you think you are?’ But because it’s Michael Caine, I’m like, ‘Sock it to me more, baby, come on!’ Throughout this whole movie we’re trudging through the jungle. So, of course, we’re sweating. I can’t tell you how much time is spent putting oil on my chest. And Evian. Spraying Evian bottles on my chest and my arms and my forehead, but mostly my chest. Just to look like I’m sweating. But your boobs don’t really sweat, cleavage doesn’t sweat. So it’s kind of funny. But Michael’s always telling the makeup artists that he’ll take over and do it. I. Frickin’. Love. Him.”

On growing balls:

“After the Oscars we were at Madonna’s party. Quentin Tarantino was there, and I was talking to him for a while, probably after a few drinks, and I told him, ‘We’ve gotta do something together.’ And he was like, ‘I would love to. That would be really great.’ Slowly, I’ve gained balls. I used to be very shy. Nothing has happened with Tarantino yet. But I definitely tried to plant my seed. Hopefully he won’t look back and think, ‘Oh my God. That crazy bitch.'”
